The Forest Within carries both story and reflection: If your thoughts were a forest, what’s growing wild from your attention right now? Is there something you’d rather be tending to instead?
This piece was created over 95 hours of graphite shading and layering, patiently building up a forest of tone and texture, resulting in something that feels sculpted from ivory or bone.
A girl tumbles through a dense forest of thought, naked and unguarded, tangled in vines and memory. Birds rise from the shadows, eyes cold, beaks sharp. A beast lurks in shadow, half-seen. On the other side, a flower blooms, radiant, but unnoticed.
In this mythic garden of the mind, fear and beauty grow side by side. She turns toward the dark, while the light glows quietly, waiting to be seen so it can truly shine.
The work carries both story and reflection: If your thoughts were a forest, what’s growing wild from your attention right now? Is there something you’d rather be tending to instead?
